I've scored columnists' predictions for the outcome of the 2017 snap election made by the @guardian's very own #MysticMegs (written just after May announced it) - Zoe Williams, Matthew d'Ancona, Martin Kettle, Sonia Sodha, Simon Jenkins, Ruth Wishart, & Gaby Hinsliff. Image
Pretty much everyone on earth had decided this was definitely going to be a humiliating defeat for Corbyn's @UKLabour, with many pundits confidently predicting massive losses - including 'political Brexpert', Matt Goodwin. 🤣

It resulted in an unexpected hung parliament. Image
From 20 points behind in the polls, Corbyn won 40% of the vote, the largest increase in vote share by a Labour leader since Clem Attlee in 1945, winning 30 more seats than Ed Miliband in 2015, including seats like Canterbury & Plymouth that for years had been Labour no-go areas. ImageImage

800 millions€ transférés de France vers des paradis fiscaux. Depuis le rachat de la branche énergie d’#Alstom, en 2015, la multinationale US #GE aurait mis en place un système d’évasion fiscale entre France, Suisse et Delaware avec bénédiction de Bercy. disclose.ngo/fr/article/gen…
Une société créée pour l’occasion à Baden (Suisse); General Electric Switzerland GmbH (GES); dès lors, l’usine de Belfort, annoncée à l’époque du rachat comme futur siège mondial des activités de turbines du groupe, cesse d’être «fabricant» pour devenir «unité de fabrication»...
"intérêt de ce tour de passe-passe: permettre à l’antenne helvète de revendre les turbines au client final afin de percevoir les bénéfices: 97% des bénéfices se sont envolés vers la Suisse où le taux d’imposition sur les bénéfices se situe entre 17% et 22%, contre 33% en France."

A thread on #ElectoralReforms to enhance women participation & make next #GE more inclusive:

1. Around 12 million less women are registered as voters compared to men. #NADRA must be provided resources & directed to reach out to un-registered population/ women, to issue #NICs
within a year to enable them to vote.

2. Currently, it is #ECP discretion to declare poll in a constituency void, if less than 10% women voted. It is suggested that it must be made mandatory for #ECP, not discretionary, to declare poll void if less than 20% women voted, not just
in NA/ PA polls but also in #LG election.

3. #ECP must be mandated to take proactive measures to assess reasons of low turnout of women & other disadvantaged groups, facilitate their participation & take measures to remove any institutional or cultural barriers to free exercise

Correction:
They are trying to build ONE plant, which is way over budget and behind schedule (Flamanville);
They "persuaded" #GE to sell back to a French company a plant which builds the steam turbine component. (/)
That technology has nothing to do with the ability to build #NUCLEAR plants, that component might as well be part of a coal based generator. Yet, the media sold that news as relevant.
Nothing has been done in order to make the bureaucratic/approval process more streamlined.(/)
While the official Macron plan allegedly is to build six more similar EPR 2 plants, with an option on 12 more, no news has been aired about starting an "assembly line" process where expertise will be maintained, at the project/approval/assembly level.(/)

I was writing a rebuttal to Dr Grum’s article “The Case for GMOs” @Ethiobserver . But I have to break my silence as some people, out of their utter ignorance, are relentlessly making ad hominem attacks on #GMO opponents. #Ethiopia
You can search “@kebyes GMO” so that you will learn how enthusiastic I am about the issue. Unlike others who are bashing every opinion/evidence, I like to ask questions first. That is how you learn. So please ask before resorting to attacks, PEOPLE. #Ethiopia

Thread 👇👇👇

GE 1/7
The monthly chart shows a very bearish outlook - a series of lower lows/lower highs. However the 2009 low at 5.73 has not been violated and daily moving averages are #bullish.

GE 2/7
Chart 1
Monthly Chart: The last time price broke above the #SMA 20 was October 2015, we are only into one week of trading but the price is currently above the same moving average. Some temporary #support can be seen off the broken #pivot resistances.

Three months later than usual @ONS have published UK National Accounts for 2018.

This series of tweets will draw attention to the financial mess #Brexit is creating for the United Kingdom.

We hear about UK national debt a lot, but not much on trade and UK balance of payments.
In their quarterly reports @ons have been warning us that UK trade deficit with EU was actually improving while trade with non-EU Rest of the World (ROW) was heading the opposite direction, despite #Brexiteers telling us that this is where our future lies!
@ONS So let's see what bad news #Brexit uncertainty has brought to our National Accounts for the last year 2018 just out:

"The UK trade deficit widened to 1.8% of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2018, from 1.2% in 2017, its highest since 2010"

Poll Final:

I'm very heartened by this.

If

1. There's now a (growing) majority for remain; and

2. The adjuste-to-only-count-real-votes number says 98.9% will vote non-tribally to stop #Brexit

Then

That predicts a more-hung parliament with remain in the 1/2
2/2 driving-seat.

We need a #GE for that to happen. If there is one, let's make that happen!

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No.4360: GE's CEO Larry Culp's CNBC Interview & Subsequent Stock Sell-off • #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #LarryCulp #CEO #GE #GeneralElectric #CrisisManagement #Stock #MediaTraining #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert
1/ On Monday 12 November 2018, GE's CEO, Larry Culp gave an interview on CNBC. What follows is a partial nonverbal analysis of that exchange and some recommendations and ideas I would propose if he were one of my private clients.
2/ In a business setting, with rare exception, a man should always wear a navy or black suit. Even light grey suits should be avoided, let alone plaid, or beige. Only navy and black suits command the highest authority, rapport, and influence.
